My storyline is that MLB collapsed after the 1994 strike and a new league rose from the ashes, its inaugural season being 2000.

The Americal Baseball Federation plays a 150-game season (which I believe to be a perfect number of games). There are 24 teams divided into two leagues, each with three divisions (four teams per). There's no interleague play; teams from opposite leagues don't meet until the All-America Series. It was a difficult decision but I went with the DH rule in both leagues.

My league consists of about one-third foreign players, with a fair number of Europeans, Africans, and South Americans (including Brazilians, Chileans, and Argentines). I've changed several countries to be more baseball-friendly, including some African and south Asian nations (like India).

I'm curious about how the fictional leagues of others are constructed.
